added a comment - 16/Apr/12 4:07 AM By mistake, I had put the wrong POM. There is change in dependency for spring-ws-core instead of spring-ws-test. I have tested using both with Xalan 2.7.1. Getting same results...

added a comment - 02/May/12 6:05 AM It looks like this is an Axis SAAJ issue, and not a Spring-WS issue. Especially because you mention that excluding the Xerces dependency from the Axis SAAJ jars solves the issue.
Please comment if there is something we can do about this issue, but for now I will resolve it.
